I worked on a new extension table for my bandsaw today. Still need the grooves for miter gauge and height alignment.

Corner is now clean up. What a difference from what I started with!

Just about cleared that darn corner. Heat got to me. Had to go inside to cool off.

Got bored, so I went outside and cleared some more of the front brush.

More cleanup this morning.

Almost done clearing the front section. All the debris from the Water Oak are burned or stacked. Just need to chop up the shrubs, overhanging branches, and saplings to complete the clearing.

The firewood stack has low quality wood. The bark has moss and other plant life growing on it that was killing the branches. On the larger logs that I want to cut into boards, I will remove the bark before storing.

I have not posted any pictures of my cleanup progress for a week. I have been sweating my keister off daily (weather permitting) to clean up the tree debris. I have made a lot of progress . You can see the amount of logs piled up on the firewood stack. Been burning all the twigs and leaf...

Took the day off from yard work and smoked 2 deer roasts. Mustard base seasoning.

I did a little cleanup yesterday.

I cut up some logs later last night and stacked them on firewood pile. Today I raked some of the loose leaves and twigs and burned them in barrels.

Managed 2 sessions outside today cleaning up the tree debris. Log pile in picture #2 is waiting for me to cut and stack for firewood. Thunderstorms rest of today and tomorrow. I get to take a break!

Spent half the day on errands and food shopping -so I only did one shift (1-1/2 hrs) on the tree debris. Two burn barrels filled and burned and cut up some large logs for easier moving. I should be able to get 3 shifts in tomorrow (weather permitting).

I have enough issues with grass around the barrels catching fire. Not a fan of bon fires for that reason. Burn barrels are very efficient at getting rid of the brush. They empty out in half an hour. I can watch them on my CCTV camera while cooling off inside the house.

Well got more work done between thunderstorms today.

Made more progress on cleaning up the tree debris today.

Actually the heat is the negative part of doing the job. Using the brushless pruners and Mini chainsaw is the fun part. They make the task fun. I was using hand pruners for the first 2 days and my hand was sore. The generic pruner that works with Makita batteries has made the difference...

First 2 pictures show the yard before cleanup. The rest are from today's progress.

Thank you for the moral support guys..

Making slow progress on clearing all the cuttings from the trees. Had 2 burn barrels delivered Tuesday to make it easier to get rid of small branches/twigs and leaves. I've been using pruners to cut the small branches to fit flat in the burn barrels. Tonight I got my wireless pruner from...
